The teacher glares around and asks ‘All right! Now, who said that?’ Again, Chandrasekhar says, ‘George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991.’

Now furious, another student yells, ‘Oh yeah? Suck this!’

Chandrasekhar jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher, ‘Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997′

Now with almost mob hysteria someone said ‘You little shit. If you say anything else, I’ll kill you.’ Chandrasekhar frantically yells at the top of his voice, ‘ Michael Jackson to the child witnesses testifying against him, 2004.’

The teacher fainted. And as the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, ‘Oh shit, we’re screwed!’ And Chandrasekhar said quietly, ‘I think it was Lehmann Brothers, November 4th, 2008′.

2010 – I never wished for a dream start, but i did not want it to be this bad either.

Indian robbers are really getting smarter and professional. I have had a first hand experience this Jan. On my way back to college i was plundered of all my belongings, including my 50,000 INR HP Pavilion Laptop, my books, and most critical all my documents from high school to college.

People will blame me for my carelessness…but i know for myself that it was blink and gone case.

It all happened at Charbagh, Lucknow Platform. At first sensing the void at the place where my trolley bag was supposed to be, it did not dawn upon me, but soon i realized what had occurred and panicked and looked in the adjacent boogies, then on the platform, asking the rail guard to do something. But getting a muted response i decided to go summon the GRP police on the platform where after explaining the matter to half-a-dozen people , a two man team was finally appointed to search the nearby area and all the platform and exit areas. But it was already to late….What can you do after the cat has spilled the milk. The luck bast*** was kaput by now, enjoying somewhere on the richness of his booty.

After a hour of ceremonial search in and around the Charbagh area. I was directed back to the police station, where after lodging a formal complaint, sadly i was hoisted on the next train to Delhi. Soon i broke the news to my mother, who thanked god that i was safe.

Just finished reading Dan Brown’s – “The Lost Symbol” . But my mind is still lost in those pages. I have been deeply affected by the principles of the so called Noetic Science.

Everything has mass. – Even our thoughts have some mass, though negligible. Having mass means having the power to attract things due to the gravitational force. Therefore what we think matters, moreover what the masses in general think matters more.

Foe example: Take the example of a country, if a single citizen thinks that the country will fall in recession. It is only a single person’s thought thus having negligible mass, therefore no great attractive force for recession to fall in. But if the majority of the people think that their country is going to blanketed by recession. Then the mass for each same thought sums up to a respectable amount exerting a attractive force far more superior causing recession to really set in.

All this sounds very interesting, therefore what i am going to now is do some internet research on Noetics, and see what i get.

Comparing human thoughts to network traffic, i realized that both forms are bursty in nature, meaning they come in short uneven spurts. I find myself in classroom thinking about something at a particular instant and then suddenly the mind is occupied with a totally different thought at the very next moment.

Due to this bursty nature of our monkeying mind many-a-times a wonderful thought or idea is lost. For this reason i have always wanted to pen my thoughts/ideas but never really succeeded in the endeavor. But now since i have some time on my hand i decided to sincerely get down to what i had been avoiding all this time.
